i would like to display a shortened vector destination on my teleporter like 100,203,700 for example

but i actually end up with something much longer like

<0.00000,0.000000,0.00000>

5 digits each for the x y z

so anybody know how to go about this?

string IntegerVector (vector v)
{
return "<" + (integer) (v.x + 0.5) + ", " + (integer) (v.y + 0.5) + ", " + (integer) (v.z + 0.5) + ">";
}

I don't see a problem with Pete's code. You certain you are passing a vector type variable into the function and not accidentally passing in the vector string?

You can't add strings to integers like that, use a second cast to string, or llDumpList2String.

Ah, I believe Viktoria is right. I figured it would implicitly cast the integer to a string, but I guess it doesn't.

Try:
string IntegerVector (vector v)
{
return "<" + (string)((integer) (v.x + 0.5)) + ", " + (string)((integer) (v.y + 0.5)) + ", " + (string)((integer) (v.z + 0.5)) + ">";
}

You can also use (string)llRound(v.x) instead of (string)((integer)(v.x+0.5)).

Sorry about my mistake; FWIW, I did check the function in LSLEditor 2.39 which issued no warning or errors and produced the desired results.

Voted. In the meantime, http://lslwiki.net/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=LibrarySLPrint can be quite handy.
